I WILL get there!!

Monitoring went fine, he just seems to have turned towards my placenta which has reduced the movements that I can feel.

I'm doing some more sorting of baby clothes today - 9-12 month stuff today which is being cleaned, sorted, folded and vacuum packed ready for when he needs it. All other sizes have been sorted and folded and hung or vacuum packed already

My friend is coming over with her 5 month old for a coffee too, it will be lovely to have baby cuddles and a catch up

Getting nervous about tomorrow. I'm keeping everything crossed that he is starting to move down and we can look at a date for induction as I'm barely sleeping worrying about how my sugars are affecting him and the increased fluid is causing more worry. If I have a date to look to, I know I will feel more in control, if that makes sense?! xx

It makes perfect sense like the end is in sight for you and your baby boy xx

Yes that makes sense considering the worry of your GD. Hope you get a date soonish. It is a shame you cannot feel movements as easily as I found that quite reassuring. He will soon be here hopefully.

Well I've done a bit of cleaning and my friend came for a quick coffee....three hours later we were still nattering while I had lots of baby cuddles I'm now knackered and want to nap!

Finally got my physio referral for my pelvis through today - 5 days before my due date :cool: what is the point?! xx

Well today went better than I could have hoped for - turns out my cervix has already started prepping and I am 2cm dilated already. If nothing happens over the weekend, I will be induced early next week! :eek:

Today has been a mass panic and hive of activity - I've (with help from my mom) been to sainsbobs, got hospital snacks and magazines, done a couple of batch cooks, cleaned, repacked my hospital bag, repacked donuts bag, put the next to me crib up, made the moses basket up, and the bouncer. Got the steriliser out and ready and my Dad has put some shelves up in Donuts room. I'm exhausted but feeling a bit more prepared!

Now I'm off to make lists for the rest of the weekend, wish me luck!! xx

Thanks all! I'm excited but extremely nervous at the moment, not really about labour funnily enough, more that it will all kick off before I finish my lists :rotfl: I've got the biggest list of stuff to do over the weekend :eek:

I'm off to make a nice mortgage OP to hit my before baby target....this is a real stretch because I had planned to have a few more weeks yet, but such is life, I will make it work!! xx
